Starting in business

Every business starts somewhere, it might be an idea that you have, or it may be leaving employment to be your own boss and capitalising on years of experience. People that start in business, are enthusiastic, determined and ambitious.

It’s a scary time for everyone, leaving the security of a near enough guaranteed income on a monthly basis and heading into uncertainty of where the next mortgage payment is coming from.

Some businesses start up with funding from business angels, startup loans, or grants from places like the princes trust. Other businesses are born from the savings of a determined new business owner.

Most start-ups require funding. We can help you put together a credible and coherent business plan with the necessary financial and strategic information required for you to present to your bank or lender. This will give you a much greater chance of success when it comes to securing funding for your business.

Most new business owners have a specialist skill, but the wider ranging regulations and requirements of starting up a business are something that they hope to learn along the way. At OS Accounting we are experts at helping people get ahead of the administration, and regulatory requirements of starting a business.

Setting out with a business idea is an exciting time, but developing that concept into a viable business is also daunting and challenging. We can help with all of the business planning basics to help put your business on a steady and solid footing.

Our years of experience can help you avoid the common mistakes start ups make, as well as helping you assess your business idea to make sure you aren’t putting money into something that needs tweaking, and maximises your chances at success.
